A very nice product overall, however, the radical increase in its price just before the promotion week (376 on 16/11, 445 on 20/11 during Black Friday Week), I find the practice considerably lacking in nobility, as the saying goes: "that's not the Coubertin spirit!" :)
So, at 376, the value for money would have been rated 5/5, at 445 3 days later it drops to 3/5, normal... not happy :(

Certainly one of the best master keyboards in its price range.
Generally well made, the KeyLab offers a fairly large number of sliders / knobs / pads, allowing good control for most uses that such a midi keyboard can offer.
It also integrates quite well with the various software sequencers available on the market, via a dedicated mode.
The main strength of this model is especially the flawless integration of Arturia's proprietary software: Analog Lab 4, which is included with the keyboard.
Analog Lab offers an impressive library of sounds, and even allows emulating the operation of many analog synthesizers (represented on screen) quite intuitively via this KeyLab.
A software that has nothing to envy to the competition and will integrate very well as a plug-in in most software used for Home Studio.
Weak points: at this price you should not expect a piano touch, but the keyboard seems well made. As for the pads, they do not respond very well to light presses.
